Chapter 1056: To Have Tender, Protective Feelings for the Fairer Sex

Zhang Yuhong was the only one who was still standing. But his face was covered in blood and snot mixed with tears. If not for the jade pendant on his waist, even Zhang Shizhao would not have recognized him.

“What… what are you doing?” Zhang Yuhong was stunned. He looked at the approaching Lan Xinyu before falling to the ground but he struggled to move backwards. He hadn’t any idea how strong these people were until he saw Ling Chuxi and the others attack. Gongxi Kuangdao’s earth-shattering blade technique scared him the most.

Gongxi Kuandao might not have been the strongest, but he was definitely the most intimidating. It was a typical live or die situation.

“Hadn’t you been very arrogant just now? Didn’t you want to snatch us back to warm your bed? Why aren’t you saying anything now? Get up and fight me!” said Lan Xinyu angrily. She thought she had finally found the strongest opponent, but he turned out to be such a coward. Was there any justice left in this world?

“Ah…” Zhang Yuhong’s eyes suddenly rolled back as he fainted at the sight of Lan Xinyu’s killing intent in her eyes.

“Are you kidding me? Is this also a tradition of the Qianzhong Ridge? If you can’t win in a fierce battle, then play dead?” Lan Xinyu was also about to faint, but it was due to anger.

“Do you think that I will let you go just because you play dead?” Lan Xinyu was really angry. ‘Too shameless, these people are just too shameless.’

Lan Xinyu made up her mind. Even if the person had been scared to death, she would whip the corpse to vent her anger today. Yes, she would whip the corpse!

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.

Everyone turned around and saw a thin old man standing in front of the door. He was the one who had knocked on the door frame a few times. The door was already broken into pieces anyway.

This old man was dressed luxuriously, and his aura was quite extraordinary. The men who were dressed like guards behind him seemed to be quite powerful too, but at this moment, the old man looked humbly extremely.

“I am Zhang Shizhao, the Zhang family clan head in Kai Yuan City. I have something to speak to you about,” said Zhang Shizhao respectfully.

Behind him, the few guards looked at Zhang Shizhao’s back in disbelief. ‘Was this really our clan head?’ With the Zhang clan’s status, let alone being able to do whatever they wanted in Kai Yuan City, even if they were to meet the major powers, they would still be on equal footing. When had they ever seen Zhang Shizhao bow and be so humble like this? Furthermore, the other party was an enemy who had beaten his son until he looked neither human nor ghost.

If it was in the past, Zhang Shizhao would have led his men to fight for their lives. Why were they so respectful today? Who were these people?

“Father, help!” Zhang Yuhong, who was playing dead on the ground, suddenly jumped up as if he had been electrocuted. He ran towards Zhang Shizhao and shouted, “Father, they dare to attack our Zhang family. Kill them and avenge your child.”

Then, he pointed at Ling Chuxi and added, “Don’t kill that woman. Don’t hurt her. I’m still waiting to take her as my wife. I want her.”

Everyone was shocked. He had been beaten up so badly, but he still hadn’t forgotten to show mercy. Was he the best of the best, or was he deeply in love? Or had his brain just been messed up by Lan Xinyu that he hadn’t noticed anything amiss with father?
